payment via Android often fails

When I win an auction on Ebay, I go to checkout on my Android phone, I successfully log in to Paypal, I then check the details are correct and select Pay Now, there is a short delay while the blue circle cursor rotates, then I'm taken back to my Ebay checkout page ready to start the whole payment process again. There is no message of failed log in or failed payment. This happens about half the time, it sometimes works fine and then sometimes fails exactly as described. I then go to my PC and complete the whole payment process faultlessly from the Ebay checkout and through Paypal. It works fine every time! There is no record of the failed payment attempt. Has anyone else had this intermittent problem with paying via Android? ... View more

At the checkout stage in an Ebay purchase, if I click "Pay Now", I'm then logged into the Paypal site and check the details are correct, then select "Pay Now" for Paypal, which then closes and returns me to the Ebay checkout page where the only option is "Pay Now" which takes me back to the Paypal site and so the loop continues with (I hope) no payment taken each time. This is only on the Ebay Android app (updated today). If I use the Windows PC on Google Chrome it works fine as it's always done. Is this a known problem? If so when's it going to be fixed? ...

Payment loop

At eBay checkout, pay now takes me to my PayPal account, I check the details and again select pay now, only to be taken back to the checkout page where I have to select pay now again as the only option. And so the loop continues, with the worry that I am paying many times over. This has happened a few times recently, only on Android though, so I bale out of the process and finish it on the PC which works fine. Anyone else had this problem? ... View more
